The handsome Michael Clayton star – who just happens to be best buds with Jen’s ex Brad Pitt – sauntered up to the actress at last Saturday’s Night Before gala in Beverly Hills, where she was busy chatting with BFF Courteney Cox, David Arquette, Orlando Bloom, Robert Downey Jr. and his wife, Susan, outside of Bar Nineteen12. “George attempted to be friendly, but Jen wasn’t having it,” one eyewitness tells OK!. “After enduring a few minutes of the actor’s presence, Jen turned on her heels and made a beeline for the Sunset Ballroom, where most of the guests were mingling.”

You know, it would make it easier to like Jennifer Aniston if she woke up one day and realized Brad Pitt isn’t coming back. It would make it easier if she realized that she was only ever considered A-list because of proximity. It would make it easier if every story we ever heard about her for the last three years didn’t have something to with how evil Angelina Jolie is and what a victim Aniston is. Seriously, either find and keep a boyfriend or get on your knees and beg David Arquette to consider polygamy. No offense sweetie, but Mariane Pearl had a faster recovery time than you.
